As a result of the comprehensive coaching and racing programmes, the club can boast amongst its members some of the UK’s most successful sailors, most of whom were ‘home grown’.  We organise an extensive racing programme, with club racing every weekend throughout the year and a number of Open Meetings for visitors from other clubs during the summer months.  Because of the size of the lake there is plenty of room for non-racers to sail when racing is taking place, unlike some clubs with smaller sailing areas.  Winter Series membership is available from 1 October to 31 March.  The Winter membership fee includes boat storage and inclusion in the Sunday Icicle race series plus entry to the club championships.
